Interesting mutation on the woman. Also the bone altar was interesting. Having crossed actually develop a definitive religious/social structure is disturbing. Knowing that they can only exist in small groups without 'feeding' on each other is one thing. You know you won't cross paths with an overwhelming number of them. But if they can begin organizing societies, the uncrossed are truly screwed.

I don't think there is any definitive religious/social structure in place here, rather just the usual perversion of something by the Crossed, because that's how they roll. Not sure what significance the X has over the usual stigmata exhibited by the plus faces, may well just be a variation without any underlying relevance. There have been largish groups of Crossed in previous series (thinking of Horsecock and his crew) and personally wouldn't want to meet 2 of them let alone 12. As for Jackson, he is interesting but I suspect no one is safe from the chop.This is an excellent series, and look forward to next week. I must get the trade too :-)

Just have to take my hat off to you guys. You could just create mindless carnage each week and still sell a lot of books. But to elevate the tragedy and make us care about even the most minor characters, and to make them interesting and identifiable, even flawed. It demonstrates a great respect for the audience, so thank you.

I'll post more thoughts once I get a chance to sit down and read the whole book.

The Bleeding Cool article regarding this chapter it titled "Crossed: Wish You Were Here Gets Haunted By A Ghost" - so I think it's safe to say that IS the nun Teresa from earlier in the story.

And her unusual lesion is also interesting. Maybe this has something to do with the unusual behavior of the Crossed that Jackson was mentioning earlier? The idea that Teresa has become a Crossed Joan of Arc is a daunting one because the last thing anyone needs is mob of plussies with an inspirational leader.

The tone, unexpected moves (to most I'd guess anyway) to an idiosyncratic plusface (whether it has meaning or not) wrapping up with a terribly foul / awkward new way to utilize a human leg, the wrap to vol. 1 was a sparks flying kind of wicked...and had me screaming for the next volume the moment I virtually flipped the last page and once again was forced to read: "Crossed: Wish You Were Here continues next week. In the meantime:" Thanks for all the time and effort Si - much obliged for all the extra entertainment!!

And can someone tell me what the hell "whelking" is?!? It must be the shittiest job on 'Cava' or something (or Shaky hated anyway) but what in the hell is it? Thanks.

Just popping to say how fantastically diabolical this Crossed run has been! I've very much enjoyed each instalment and your characterisation is brilliant Si. The art is phenomenal in bringing these demented visions to life. This is also the best webcomic format I've seen to date. Great work.
